Nonsense. If that's what you believe, then you've got bigger problems than being a straight, white male.

Sorry but I did extremely well under Bush and the Rep's.


The economic mess started about 3 years ago.

The dems have had 3 1.2 years to fix anything they thought was wrong.

Obama has been in office 21 months and was giving a blank and open checkbook and has made things worse.

The problem before was rep forgot how to be conservatives and starting acting and thinking like liberals which is a huge mistake.

I want conservative thinking people in office, not spend and tax idiots like some of these liberals we have now.

Record job losses have came only since the dems took control.

Bush and the rep had 52 consecutive months of job growth.

Obama and the dems, well, NEGATIVE numbers going back to 2007.

Why would anyone vote for the same liberal nuts who have controlled America for 3 1/2 years?

really? no ideas to help create jobs? oyu dont listen very well do you? cut expensive regulations, cut taxes, and generally make the business environment better in this country so that business can do what it does best, make money. when business makes money, they expand, and that adds jobs. and then there are those that will take a risk and start a new business, and that adds jobs. and if they run that business well, then it too will expand, and create more jobs. all this business creation and expansion adds to the tax base so that tax revenues go up.

the next thing that needs to happen is cut government spending. with an increase in tax revenue, and a decrease in spending, the deficit and debt will go down.

LOL, that's rich coming from someone who undoubtedly still lives in their parents' basement and likely owns nothing of value.

The liberals in power have done nothing to spur job growth other than bandaid fixes which only add to the national debt and don't actually accomplish anything (ie., cash for clunkers, home energy tax credit, tax credits for home purchases). And now, during the worst economic recession of our lifetimes, they want to raise taxes on everyone by letting the tax cuts expire. And they want us to keep them in power? L.O.L.

Letting tax cuts expire is not raising taxes... Try not to spin the truth... Like Republicans usually do...

No... the foreclosures started by lack of greedy bank regulation... Thanks to Bush and Hank Paulson...

You can't get around the fact that Bush set a 10 year limit on those tax cuts for a reason... so as to not create a massive deficit... Oops!... guess he was right...
